Table of contents

Plannja’s assembly instructions were created to help both the private individual and the professional.

In order to make it easier for everyone to immediately find the instructions and the help they need, we have di-

vided the assembly instructions into distinct sections. The first chapter – General preparations, roofing – is ex-

tremely important for those who have never laid a roof before.

Don’t forget to stay calm and think through every step before you get to grips with the actual assembly. Good

preparation and a methodical approach are the key to a perfect result. The assembly instructions must be fol-

lowed for our warranty to be valid.

Plannja is Europe’s leading manufacturer of thin sheet building materials. Our wide range of products means that

we can provide product systems and total thin sheet solutions for almost any building project.

Aluminium roofs are more sensitive Aluminium is softer than steel. Therefore exer-cise extreme caution when walking on an alu-minium roof. Note that Plannja 20-75 in aluminium is not walkable at all if batten spacing is the maxi-mum 500 mm c/c.

IMPORTANT – ALUMINIUM ROOFSA few things to remember when choosing an alu-minium roof.

a) Aluminium moves more than steel with tem-perature changes. If the pitch of the roof is more than 6 metres expansion and contraction can be handled by pre-drilling the top sheet at each end overlap with an ø 8 mm bit before fastening the sheet. Avoid pitches longer than 12 metres!

b) When using wooden battens, affix a strip of felt paper (see options selections) above the joists to avoid hearing a clicking noise during tempera-ture changes. Not necessary when using Plannja Kombi battens or Renovation battens.

c) To prevent contraction/expansion move-ments, fasten all flashings without shared screws in overlaps, i.e. the screws may not pass through both flashings.

When taking delivery of roofing sheetAs far as possible, store Plannja construction panel-ling indoors. Cover the materials with tarpaulin when storing outdoors. If there is a risk of condensation store packages inclined. Make sure good ventila-tion is achieved. This applies to both steel and aluminium.

Avoid damage to the panelling! Carry Plannja Roofing Tiles longer than 5 metres on edge or on a wooden frame. If they are carried flat the sheets will bend by their own weight and stretch. During subsequent assembly problems may be encountered with the fit between different sheets.

Sheet durability and walkabilityThe walkability of thin sheet profile panels is difficult to define. In general a certain degree of care must be taken when walking and working on thin sheet roofs. Walkable sheeting refers to profiled panels that will allow careful access without being dam-aged or suffering ugly indentations.

Walkability and strength are dependent on thickness Thicker sheeting allows greater spacing between battens and provides improved walkability. For safe-ty’s sake always try to walk above or beside a bat-ten. In the case of Plannja Roofing Tiles and Plannja Traditional Profile, always step in the profile valley when walking on the roof.

A. ON TRUSSESWhen building a new roof, it’s usual to choose a light underlayment such as Plannja Anticon Cov-erall or tongue-and-groove planks/plywood, at least 17 mm thick with a felt paper underlay with a minimum quality of YAP2200 or Plannja Anticon Coverall. Read more under Installing battens for each type of product.

B. ON TONGUE-AND-GROOVE PLANKS/PLYWOODRemove the old roofing. If the existing battens and counter battens are used, the battens must be moved so that the spacing corresponds to the dimensions in the assembly instructions for the roofing tiles concerned. Replace defective battens.

C. ON SHINGLES, FELT PAPER, FLAT TILESAllow the old roof to remain as underlayment. Seal any holes in the simplest manner. Roofing sheet can be laid directly on the old roof on the condition that the roof is watertight, even and that tongue-and-groove planking is in good enough condition for fasteners to hold the sheet down onto the underlayment, which must be at least 17 mm thick. However, we recommend the use of Plannja Kombi Battens, Plannja Renova-tion Battens or battens and counter battens.

The snow load map shows snow volumes where you live. It also determines how the underlay-ment should look. If you live on the boundary be-tween two different zones, choose the one with the most snow to guarantee durability. A more detailed map is available on Boverket’s website.This applies to Sweden. Check the snow load for the area where your property is located.

Plannja roofing tiles and wall cladding normally require very little maintenance. Deposits that are not washed away by rain should be removed with a soft brush and water. Cut edges and paint damage that occur during assembly should be immediately touched up with Plannja touch-up paint. After assembly, be careful to remove all drill swarf so that the profiles do not become miscoloured.

Assembly instructions, Plannja Trend – 13

PREPARATIONBefore you begin the assembly of your Plannja Roof it is important to read through the “General Preparations, roof laying” section. The section pro-vides information and advice on how to measure your roof, what underlying materials are suitable, and much more besides.

DEGREE OF DIFFICULTY, INSTALLATIONWhen this symbol is shown, the assembly is such that a roofer or other spe-cialist may be needed for advice or execution.

WORK SAFETYAlways follow applicable work safety legislation.

LABOURFor safe assembly, we always recommend that at least two people perform the work.

TOOLSNo special tools are required for roofing sheet assembly. Nevertheless, a screwdriver can make the work considerably easier. Cut sheets using sheet metal shears, a nibbling machine or a circular saw. Never use a grinding disc. Sheet metal coatings can be damaged by swarf from the disc. A staple gun may be used for any dampening strip assembly.

TRANSPORT, STORAGE AND HANDLINGPlannja Trend is delivered in specially designed packaging; allow the sheets to remain in it until ready for use. Remember that long sheets may not be lift-ed by their ends; the best method is to carry them by the snap locks.

A. Lay Plannja Trend directly on tongue and groove boards /plywood, at least 17 mm thick and with an approved drainage underlay e.g. Plannja Anticon Coverall.

B. If you choose to lay the roof on battens the mini-mum batten width is 70 mm and max 300 mm c/c. The final batten should be installed around 100 mm from the ridge. Always use approved drainage underlay e.g. Plannja Anticon Coverall.

C. If your house has battens fixed directly to the truss-es, the battens must be at least 45×70 and max 300 mm c/c. Lay a light underlayment beneath the batten e.g. Plan-nja Anticon Coverall.

For more information on alternatives B and C, visit www.plannja.com

Begin by checking roof measurements by measuring the diagonals form corner to corner. If the distances are unequal, the roof is skewed. In this case lay the Plannja Trend so that its lower edge aligns with the eaves. Deviations of 20–30 mm can be concealed with gable flashings.

If you want the snap locks to be symmetrically distrib-uted across the roof first measure the length of the roof in order to determine the widths of the first and last sheets. Remember to add around 30 mm to the cutting width to make the fold up to the bargeboard. Refer to step 8.

DAMPENING STRIPSAssembly on battens

LIFTING SHEETS TO THE ROOF

Staplesbracket

When installing Plannja Trend 475 onto battens, glue dampening strips in the centre of each sheet from eaves to ridge. The dampening strip should run from the second lowest to the second highest batten. The aim is to reduce any sound that may be caused by wind and rain.

Especially windy areasHowever, it is not certain that noise can be prevent-ed in especially windy areas such as locations close to the coast. In such cases we recommend Plannja Trend with SoundControl, which is a Trend variant with felt on the underside. Remember to tear off or cut away around 100 mm of the felt at the end of the sheet that will abut the eave flashing before you install the sheet.

Remember that long sheets may not be lifted by their ends. The best method is to carry them by the snap locks. The sheets can be slid up to the roof along a pair of beams, a ladder or similar.

Carry sheets long side up by holding the snap locks.

Use planks, a ladder or similar as a support on which to slide the sheets up onto the roof.


When installing Plannja Trend on a flat underlayment, sta-ple dampening strips beneath the centre of each profile valley from eaves to ridge. The dampening strip should cover the major part of the underlayment. The aim is to reduce any sound that may be caused by wind and rain.

DIRECTION OF INSTALLATION

CONNECTING AT THE EAVESHemmed or straight front edge

Plannja Trend is available for laying either from the left or the right. Install so that the stamped holes are on the sides facing the direction of assembly toward the centre of the roof.

Plannja Trend is available in several variants for connecting at the eaves; these two are the most common:

1. Hemmed for eaves. The hem is slid over the spe-cially adapted eave flashing.

2. Straight front edge; the sheet is laid with a 10 mm protrusion over a standard eave flashing.

3. The protrusion must be bent down in the case of pitches between 8–14°.

IMPORTANT! Check that the first sheet forms a 90° angle with the eaves.

Fasten the eave flashing with a screw (or galva-nized nail) into the underlayment at a spacing of 500 mm. Bear in mind you may have to install gutter brackets before the eave flashing. Slot the flashings together when joining.

If you have chosen Plannja Trend with a straight front edge, join the eave flashings using 100 mm overlaps.

Lay the first sheet in position. Check that it forms a 90° angle with the eaves. A margin of error of 20–30 mm at the eaves can be con-cealed later with the gable flashing. Lay the first sheet so that its seam slots over the eave flash-ing and then slide up the sheet. Align the sheet and fasten using a 4.2×25 screw at the bottom corner and then at 300 mm c/c intervals to the ridge, and with visible 4.8×35 screws at 300 mm c/c intervals to the gable. The screws in the punched holes must be centred in the holes and may not be tightened so hard that sheet heat ex-pansion is hindered.

INSTALLING THE FIRST SHEETLay the first sheet in position. Check that it forms a 90° angle with the eaves.A margin of error of 20–30 mm at the eaves can be concealed later with the gable flashing. When laying seamed sheets, lay the first sheet so that its seam slots over the eave flashing and then slide up the sheet. Align the sheet and fasten us-ing screws as shown in the diagram in steps 9a or 9b, depending on the underlayment.


Lay Plannja Modern from right to left. Start by laying the first sheet at the bottom of the outer edge of the roof. Attach the sheet at right angles to the eaves. Sequence as per schematic. Sheet number 2 must overlap sheet number 1 by at least 200 mm.

IMPORTANT!Check that the first sheet forms a 90° angle with the eaves.

Check the angle using the 3-4-5 method, as illustrated.

Do not tighten the screw in the profile peak too hard. There is a risk that profile shape will be dis-torted as illustrated on the left, creating a gap between the sheet and the dampening strip.

SIDE OVERLAPFastening and sealing

Roof slope 10–14˚Run a bead of sealant e.g. Plannja SPS, along the lower profile’s flange. A 3×10 mm self-adhesive seal strip or grease may also be used as a seal. When installing on battens, rivet or screw the side overlap at 300 mm c/c intervals.

Roof slopes greater than 14°When installing on battens, especially windy lo-cations, rivet or screw the side overlap with a c/c spacing of 800 mm (in line with the screws in profile valley).

1 screw / profile apex


A bead of sealant, e.g. Plannja SPS, between sheets

End overlapThe end overlap must be at least 200 mm and be on two battens. If the pitch is 10–14º, the end overlap must be at least 500 mm and be sealed in the same manner as the side overlap. If the slope exceeds 12 m, shape the end over-laps so that the upper and lower sheet rows can slide in relation to one another when expanding/contracting.

Eaves, gable and ridge flashingsIn order to reduce contraction/expansion move-ments, fasten all flashings without shared screws in overlaps, i.e. screws may not pass through both flashings.

VALLEY GUTTERStandard


Attach the valley gutter to the underlayment with the aid of brackets or step brackets. The sheet must protrude at least 150 mm beyond the edge of the valley. Fasten all sheets next to the valley gutter using screws on the outside of the gutter. Overlap gutter joints by at least 500 mm.

Run a bead of sealant e.g. Plannja SPS, between the sheet and the valley gutter, and a bead be-tween the drainage underlay and the gutter seam.

Attach the valley gutter to the underlayment with the aid of brackets or step brackets. Cut the sheet to allow a hem to be made using seaming tongs. This step can be difficult; it can be a good idea to engage a tradesman for the best execu-tion. Fasten all sheets next to the valley gutter using screws on the outside of the gutter. Over-lap gutter joints by at least 500 mm.

PREPARATIONBefore you begin the assembly of your Plannja Roof it is important to read through the “General Preparations, roof laying” section. The section provides information and advice on how to meas-ure your roof, what underlying materials are suitable, and much more besides.


LABOURAssembly can be done by one person. For safe assembly, we always recommend that at least two people perform the work.

TOOLSNo special tools are required for roofing sheet assembly. Nevertheless, a screwdriver can make the work considerably easier. Cut sheets using sheet metal shears, a nibbling machine or a circu-lar saw. Never use a grinding disc. Sheet metal coatings can be damaged by swarf from the disc.

TRANSPORT, STORAGE AND HANDLINGAs far as possible, store Plannja construction panelling indoors. Cover the materials with tarpaulin when storing outdoors. If there is a risk of condensation store packages inclined. Make sure good ventilation is achieved.

WALKABILITYThe walkability of thin sheet profile panels is difficult to define. In general a certain degree of care must be taken when walking and working on thin sheet roofs. Walkable sheeting refers to profiled panels that will allow careful access without being damaged or suffering ugly indentations. For safety’s sake always try to walk above or beside a batten. In the case of Plannja Traditional Profile, always step in the profile valley when walking on the roof.

RECYCLINGTake care to remove sheet clippings and screws from the roof, gutters and the ground on completion of assembly. The materials are 100 per cent recyclable and can be disposed of at recycling stations. Remember to pick up or sweep up nibbling chips from the roofing sheets as they can otherwise cause damage to the coating.

ROOF MEASUREMENT


HOW TO MEASURE THE ROOF Begin by checking that the roof is straight. Measure diagonally from corner to corner. If the distances are unequal, the roof is skewed. Devia-tions of 20–30 mm can be adjusted with gable flashings.Alternatively, the angle can be checked using a 3-4-5 triangle as illustrated.

Remember that long sheets may not be lifted by their ends. The best method is to carry them by holding the long sides. The sheets can be slid up to the roof along a pair of beams, a ladder or similar.

Carry sheets upright by holding the long sides.

Use planks, a ladder or similar as a support on which to slide the sheets up onto the roof.

EAVE FLASHING

Plannja Traditional Profile must be installed on a flat underlayment with underlayment felt (A). It can be installed on battens with underlayment (B or C), but because there is a high risk the joists will show through, Plannja recommends the choice of Traditional Profile with ribs in such cases. Plan-nja Traditional Profile with ribs may be installed directly onto battens. Max batten spacing with regard to sheet walkability is 500 mm.

A. Lay Plannja Traditional profile directly on tongue and groove boards /plywood, at least 17 mm thick and with underlayment felt equivalent to minimum YAP2200 or Plannja Anticon Coverall.

B. If you choose to lay the roof on battens the minimum batten width is 70 mm with max 300 mm spacing. Use underlayment felt equivalent to minimum YAP2200 or Plannja Acticon Coverall.

C. If your house has battens fixed directly to the trusses, the battens must be at least 45×70 and max 500 mm c/c. Install an underlayment of board or Plannja Acticon Coverall below the battens. Batten
